Jokes of the Week The Clever Judge
One drunk man started a fight and
the police came and took him to jail.
The next day the man went before
the judge.
The judge asked the man, “Where
do you work?”
The man said, “Here and there.”
The judge asked the man, “What do
you do for a living?”
The man said, “This and that.”
The judge then said, “Take him
away.”
The man said, “Wait, judge when
will I get out?”
The judge said to the man, “Sooner
or later.”
Who cut down the cherry tree
A farmer grabbed his 10-year-old
son and asked, “Did you cut down
that cherry tree?”
“Yes, Daddy, I did.” – the boy
replied sobbing. “I cannot tell a lie.”
The farmer grabbed the boy, put
him on his knee and whaled the tar
out of him.
“But, Daddy,” the boy cried,
“George Washington’s father didn’t
do that to him when he cut down
that cherry tree when he was a
boy.”
“That’s true,” the father replied, “but
George Washington’s father wasn’t
sitting in the tree when he cut it
down!”
You are not getting older
For his wife's birthday, a doctor
ordered a cake with this inscription:
"You are not getting older,
You are getting better."
When asked how he wanted it
arranged, he said, "Just put 'You
are not getting older' at the top, and
'You are just getting better' at the
bottom."
It wasn't until the good doctor was
ready to serve the cake that he
discovered it read:
"YOU ARE NOT GETTING OLDER
AT THE TOP, YOU ARE JUST
GETTING BETTER AT THE
BOTTOM."

Public Notices Notis‐notis Umum WHY YOU MUST KEEP YOUR VEHICLE REGISTERED
These are short articles about legal issues that may interest you. They are not legal advice. You should always get individual legal advice for your
situation.
Every owner of a motor vehicle (eg car, motor bike, quad bike) or trailer must keep their vehicle registered. This is also called having a current licence
for your vehicle. There are two very important reasons for doing this.
The first is that it is a criminal offence to drive an unregistered (unlicensed) vehicle. If you do so, the penalty is a fine up to $500 plus an extra
monetary penalty of an amount equivalent to the cost of 6 months’ registration for that vehicle. In addition, you must register the vehicle before you
drive it again. Any other person who drives your unregistered vehicle also commits an offence.
The second extremely important reason is because when you register your vehicle, you, and anyone else who is driving your vehicle, get insurance if
you or they injure or kill someone when driving your vehicle. This type of insurance does not cover you for any property damage you cause to another
vehicle or other property. You need to get another type of insurance for that.
When you pay the registration (licence) fee for your vehicle, part of this registration fee is to insure you and anyone driving your vehicle for any claim
against you or them for injuring or killing someone if you or they drive the vehicle negligently. Negligence is where you don’t take reasonable care and
cause someone loss and injury.
An example might be where you are driving, while looking down at your phone and texting, and because you are not looking at the road, you run over
a person beside the road and cause them serious injury. You have been negligent in your driving because you were not taking reasonable care (and
in this case you have also committed a criminal offence).
A claim against you for injuring someone due to your negligent driving is called a “third party personal injury claim.”
The person injured can make a claim against you for all of the loss and damage they have suffered because of your mistake when you were driving. A
claim can even reach hundreds of thousands of dollars if the person is badly injured. For example, they may have a permanent disability and/or lose
their job because they can no longer work, or have to take lower paid work because of their injuries.
When your vehicle is registered and you are therefore insured, and have not done anything that cancels your insurance (see below) the Insurance
Commission of Western Australia (ICWA) will pay for all the loss and damage (called “damages”) if you have injured a person through your negligent
driving. So you do not have to pay.
If you have not registered your vehicle, and injure someone through your negligent driving and cause them loss and damage, ICWA may have to pay
the person injured for their loss and damage. However, ICWA can then force you to repay ICWA. Or you may have to pay the person directly. This
can cost you up to several hundred thousands of dollars, depending on the severity of the injury and loss and damage caused.
When you buy a vehicle, or are given one as a gift, you must make sure that it is registered before driving or riding it. You should get the registration
papers. Even if you just drive or borrow someone else’s vehicle, you should always make sure that it is registered before driving it.
It is also very important to know that there are some ways in which you can void or cancel your vehicle’s third party personal injury insurance (which
means it no longer covers you). This happens if you breach (break) important terms of the insurance. Some ways in which you can breach the terms
are if you:





are driving above the legal blood alcohol level
use the vehicle for something other than you claim when you register it
do not report an accident that injures or kills someone to ICWA
are unlicensed to drive
drive your vehicle when it is damaged or unsafe.
If you are involved in an accident in a vehicle which causes someone injury or death, you must write to ICWA straight away (whether your vehicle is
registered or unregistered) and advise it of:






there has been an accident
the date, time and place of the accident
the registration/licence plate details of all vehicles involved
the names and addresses of all people involved
the names and addresses of any witnesses
what happened.
Another important thing to know is that if you drive someone else’s vehicle without their permission and cause injury to someone, you are not covered
by the third party personal injury insurance attached to the vehicle. Again, you may end up being liable for thousands of dollars. You have also
committed an offence of stealing.
In summary, always only drive a registered vehicle, never use a vehicle without the owner’s permission and never breach the terms of third party
personal injuries insurance.

Public Notices (cont’d) Notis‐notis Umum (seterusnya) KENAPA KAMU SELALU MESTI REJISTA KENDERAAN (kereta, motorsekel, roda 4, dan sebagainya) KAMU
Majalah-majalah pendek ini tentang perkara-perkara undang-undang mungkin menarik minat anda. Ia bukan nasihat perundangan. Kamu seharusnya
selalu dapatkan nasihat undang-undang untuk keadaan kamu.
Setiap pemilik kenderaan (seperti kereta, motorsekel, roda 4) atau trailer mesti pastikan kenderaan mereka selalu direjista. Ini juga dipanggil
mempunyai lesen hidup untuk kereta kamu. Ada dua sebab penting kenapa dibuat sedemikian.
Pertama ia adalah kesalahan jenayah untuk membawa kereta tidak direjista (tidak ada lesennya). Kalau berbuat sedemikian, dendaannya hingga
$500 dengan tambahan dendaan ‘monetary’ sejumlah setanding ongkos 6 bulan rejistresen untuk kereta itu. Dengan tambahnya, kamu mesti rejista
kereta itu sebelom kamu membawanya. Sesiapa yang membawa kereta kamu yang tidak direjista itu juga melakukan kesalahan.
Kedua sebab yang penting sekali olehkerana bila kamu rejista kereta kamu, kamu, dan sesiapa yang membawa kereta kamu, dapat insuran kalau
mereka mencederakan atau membunuh seorang bila membawa kereta kamu. Insuran jenis ini tidak menutup kamu untuk segala kerusakkan harta
yang kamu sebabkan kepada kereta lain atau hak kepunyaan kamu. Kamu perlu mengambil insuran lain untuk itu.
Bila kamu bayar rejistresen (lesen) untuk kereta kamu, sebahgian daripada ongkos ini ialah untuk memastikan yang kamu dan sesiapa saja yang
membawa kereta kamu terhadap tuntutan terhadap kamu atau mereka jika mencelakakan atau membunuh seorang dimasa kamu atau mereka
membawa kereta kamu secara tidak berperhatian. Tidak berperhatian ialah bila kamu tidak mengambil perhatian yang baik dan menyebabkan
kerugian atau kecelakaan orang lain.
Satu contoh ialah dimasa kamu driving, kamu memandang kebawa pandang talipun kamu dan texting, dan bersebabkan kamu tidak memandang
jalan, kamu terlanggar orang dipinggir jalan dan menyebabkan kecederaan serius. Kamu telah tidak berperhatian dimasa driving kerana kamu tidak
mengambil perhatian sewajarnya (dan dalam keadaan ini kamu juga telah melakukan pelanggaran jenayah).
Tuntutan terhadap kamu kerana mencederakan orang lain kerana cara driving-an kamu dipanggil “third party personal injury claim.”
Orang yang celaka boleh membuat tuntutan terhadap kamu atas kerugian dan kerusakkan yang mereka mengalami bersebabkan kesalahan kamu
bila driving. Tuntutan boleh sampai ongkos ratusan ribu kalau orang itu terok celakanya. Contohnya, mereka hingga cacat seluruh hidup dan/atau
kehilangan kerjaan kerana tidak boleh kerja lagi, atau terpaksa bekerja kerjaan gaji yang kurang bersebabkan luka mereka.
Bila kereta kamu direjista, kamu di insure, dan tidak membuat apapa yang membatalkan insuran kamu (lihat dibawa), Insurance Commission of
Western Australia (ICWA) akan membayar semua kerugian dan kerusakkan (dipanggil “damages”) jika kamu celakakan orang kerana driving kamu
yang tidak berperhatian. Jadi kamu tidak perlu bayar.
Kalau kamu tidak rejista kereta kamu, dan mencelakakan orang kerana driving kurang berperhatian dan menyebabkan mereka kerugian dan
kerusakkan, ICWA mungkin harus membayar orang yang cedera itu terhadap kerugian dan kerusakkan mereka. Tetapi, ICWA boleh memaksa kamu
untuk mengganti rugi membayar ICWA. Atau kamu mungkin harus membayar orang itu secara langsung. Ongkos terhadap kamu ini boleh hingga
berberapa ratusan ribu, tergantung dengan teruknya kecelakaannya dan kerugian dan kerusakkan yang telah disebabkan.
Bila kamu membeli kereta, atau diberikan sebagai hadiah, kamu mesti pastikan yang kereta direjista sebelom dibawak. Kamu seharusnya menerima
surat rejistresenya. Walaupun kamu hanya membawak atau meminjam kereta orang lain, kamu seharusnya selalu pastikan yang direjista
sebelomnya.
Juga yang penting diketahui ada cara-cara yang kamu boleh membatalkan ‘third party personal injury insurance’ kereta (bermakna ia tidak akan
melindungi kamu). Ini berlaku kalau kamu melanggar syarat-syarat penting insuran ini. Berberapa cara yang kamu boleh melanggar syarat-syarat
ialah kalau kamu:





driving dengan batas ‘blood alcohol’ yang melebihi menurut undang-undang
gunakan kereta itu untuk sesuatu selain dari apa yang kamu klaim bila direjista
kamu tidak melaporkan kecelakaan yang mencederakan atau membunuh seorang kepada ICWA
tidak mempunyai lesen untuk membawak kereta
membawak kereta kamu bila ada kerusakkan atau tidak selamat.
Kalau kamu terlibat dalam kecelakaan dalam kereta yang menyebabkan seorang cedera atau mati, kamu mesti menulis kepada ICWA seterusnya
(jika kereta kamu direjista ataupun tidak) dan memberitahu mereka tentang:






telah terjadi kecelakaan
haribulan, jam dan tempat kecelakaan
keterangan rejistresen/licence plate semua kereta yang terlibat
nama dan alamat semua orang yang terlibat
nama dan alamat semua saksi
apa yang berlaku.
Satu perkara penting untuk diketahui lagi ialah jika kamu membawak kereta orang lain tanpa keizinan mereka dan menyebabkan kecederaan
terhadap orang, kamu tidak dilindungi oleh insuran peribadi ‘third party’ yang berkaitan dengan kereta kamu. Sekali lagi, kamu akhirnya mungkin
bertanggungjawab terhadap bayaran ratusan ribu. Kamu juga telah membuat keselahan pencurian.
Ringkasnya, selalu membawak kenderaan yang direjista, jangan sekali menggunakan kereta tanpa keizinan orang yang punya dan jangan sekali-kali
melanggar syarat-syarat ‘third party personal injuries insurance.’

Knowing Reasons
It is really good to know reasons
about giving up Smoking.
Reasons can be any. If the
reasons are your own, not
someone else’s then it would be
easier for you to follow the plan
for quit smoking.
Get Ready
Consult the doctor to know
about the medicines and help
available in your area for the
people, who want to quit
smoking. You can also consult
your insurance provider to know
about some medicines and
counseling that are available in
your health plan, if you are
taking services of health
insurance.
Set Your Goals

It is easy to follow small
goals so, you should break
the goals in to smaller one
because they become easier
to achieve.

Try to set the clear goals.
Set a quit date and time and
follow it strictly.

Reward yourself
achieving the goals.

It takes several weeks in
quitting smoking, it takes
sometime so, don’t give up
your efforts and lose heart,
if initially you are not
achieving your goals.

Try to plan realistic goals
because you cannot quit
smoking in 10 to 20 days.
on
Make Few Changes

Try to take off all the
Cigarettes, Ashtrays and
lighters from the home. Try
to avoid the smell of smoke.
Clean the house, clothes etc
to throw away all the
reminders etc.

Don’t let people smoke at
your place. Try to avoid the
company of those, who
smoke.

Take all the reminders from
your car as well.

Try to read the Smoking
Journals etc it would help
you in getting information
about the tough things
about quitting smoking.

March has been a particularly rainy month! The manual rain gauge as of 30th March has recorded 442.6 mm over 26 rain days, which is 210mm – or
90% - above average. Our highest falls were recorded on 23rd March from overnight rain totalling 79.4mm, nowhere near as much as the record set
on 6th March 1985 at 216.4mm. Whether or not this is a sign of the month ahead – April being the highest rainfall month on average – will have to wait
to be seen.
Adding to our stormy start to the year, we had 5 days of noted lighting and/or thunder. This added to the tally so far has us at 12 recorded
thunder/lightning days which is already over the average of 11.3.. And it is only March!
Temperatures both during the day and overnight have remained above average by 0.8 and 0.9 deg C respectively. Our highest wind gust was at 2pm
on the 1st of March – 50 kph from SE during a heavy rain day. Winds have varied through the compass this month as the monsoon trough hovered
nearby, this also giving us a few very beautiful doldrum days on the lagoon.
Regards,
Cocos Met team: Alana, Matthew & Joshua (departed!).
